Yes, it's possible. I recently finished and run PicoBSD 0.5 
(FreeBSD 4-STABLE) using 486SX-25/8Mb RAM/1.44 boot floppy.
MFS size is 1600Kb. It has pppd serving leased line via 33.6k modem,
default route is to ethernet. The other size of LL is normal
FreeBSD 3.5 installation with squid, it serves local network.
You can set up pppd for dial on demand. 
By the way, both machines use PPP_DEFLATE to speed up transfer of text
data (mail, news, html etc). Everything work fine.
